I recommend Dr Eviatar to absolutely everyone considering Lasik – I had Lasik surgery at Chelsea Eye Associates and to this day I still recommend Dr Eviatar to all of my friends. Chelsea Eye Associates made the decision much easier and Dr Eviatar could not have been more professional and sensitive to my anxiety about the decision. I could literally not see the E on the eye chart and a day after the surgery my eyes checked out at 15/20. They were so sensitive to me in preparation for and during the surgery that a difficult process was really effortless. I gave a customer presentation the day following the surgery and have had no problems with my eyes since. About a month after the surgery I remember finally cleaning out my medicine cabinet of all my contact lenses, solutions and cleaners. The surgery changed my life!
If you are considering Lasik...run don't walk. Everyone I have sent there has had the same experience.

Chelsea Eye, i highly recommend it – I have been using the services of Chelsea Eye for several years, now. As a patient/customer who has used many of the varied, available services, I would highly recommend any and all of their services. I originally visited for my eyes. Dr. Eviatar and his staff were extremely patient and took the time to explain the various options available to me. Everything from the exam, to explaining to even ordering contacts, I was handled in a professional, but personal manner.
Through the last several years, i have had skin peels, laser hair removal, botox and other cosmetic procedures. i was, obviously, very pleased and continue to go back, on a regular basis. (Alicia, who does the skin care & laser hair removal, is a true asset to Chelsea Eye)
Last week, Dr. Coad performed a cataract surgery on my right eye, and, again, everything was handled with patience and care. I was very nervous about this procedure, but Dr. Coad really took the time to thoroughly explain how the surgery would be done and how it all worked. it was totally painless and i am now seeing perfect, in that eye, with 20-15 vision. I will return, in 2 weeks, for the other eye.
Chelsea Eye is a big place with a large waiting area and large staff. One might get the impression that, due to its size, it may be more of a "factory" from your first encounter with the staff & doctors, one can see that there is nothing "factory" about this place and personal attention seems to, always, be the mantra here. I feel very lucky to have Chelsea Eye as a resource.

Lasik Eye Surgery – Dr. Coad did my lasik surgery in March of 2006, I must say that having lasik was the best decision of my life!!.. Waking up the next morning was amazing,being able to see for the first time without glasses in 15yrs brought tears to my eyes. Dr. Coad is a phenomenal physcian,i trusted him with my eyes and he did a superb job. Dr.Coad's bedside manner is what blew me away,he takes his time and discusses the procedure with you and answers all of your questions which is a high priority for me!.The prodecure was fast and painless.The whole experience with Chelsea Eye and Dr. Coad was top notch.I have and continue to refer my family and friends to Dr.Coad!!!

Exemplary Care from Highly Qualified Staff, Where the Focus is On You – I'm 24 years old and I have been wearing glasses since I was four, contact lenses since I was 14. I have suffered from High Myopia (-8.00 = coke bottle glasses ) and High Astigmatism ( blurry and uncomfortable contact lenses). Interested in LASIK and having done a lot of research about the procedure, I sought out Chelsea Eye as I have many other Ophthalmic practices in my search to find the right place and the right doctor to trust my eyes to. When I first walked through the door, I was very surprised at the young and "attractive" hip feel of the practice, I being only 24 years old, my appeal came quickly. The staff was super sweet to me and answered all of my questions without making me feel rushed, which is something that often occurs at other practices. The clinical people who did all my measurements and talked to me about LASIK were very professional and answered all of my questions or found the answers out for me. Before even meeting the surgeon something I realized already was that the staff actually cared about me. I wasnt just another patient, but a real person with concerns and issues that the staff listened to and didnt just brush to the side and follow my appointment by some "medical book".
Though it may seem like the smallest and most insignificant thing, but what I first noticed about the surgeon was that he talked to me, not at me. Again, the doctor alone made me feel as if I was a person and not a dollar sign. He was more than efficient in explaining the procedure, calming my fears, and most imporantly, being realistic about the future of LASIK and its limitations. Even though I am only 24, he explained my future need for reading glasses in my 40's - 50's. I explained to him that I couldn't even imagine myself being that old!
My procedure went amazingly, it was soo fast and easy! I saw great the next day, 20/20! These guys at Chelsea Eye are awesome! I wish I hadn't waited so long! But really..don't wait, go, GO!!!!!!!

Exceptional patient care and extraordinary Lasik surgeons – I just had my lasik eye surgery and so happy with the entire experience from the moment I walked into this practice to my new 20/20 vision!! Dr. Eviatar is a truely gifted lasik surgeon and came highly recommended. Although I did a ton of research and even visited other lasik practices - I knew I was in the right hands at Chelsea Eye. The entire staff is so caring, warm and genuine! .... and I never once felt like they were trying to sell me on anything. They use the best technology called iLasik - apparently the same is what fighter pilots and the Naval Seal now use. If it's good enough for them, then I know it's perfect for me. I love this practice and the doctors - I'm referring all my friends to them. I now see better than I did in my glasses or contact lenses!! It truely is miraculous!! I just wish I had done this sooner!!
Thankyou Dr Eviatar - you've changed my life!!
